Ex-RensCo DA Ken Bruno running for Grafton Town Justice

Ken Crowe has learned that former Rensselaer County District Attorney Ken Bruno is running for town justice.

Republican Party members confirmed Thursday that Bruno’s name appears on the GOP’s nominating petitions, which are to be filed next week at the county Board of Elections.

Bruno, the son of former state Senate Majority Leader Joseph Bruno, resigned as DA eight years ago to take a job with influential lobbying firm Wilson, Elser, Moskowitz, Edleman & Dicker, saying that the $120,000-a-year prosecutor’s salary wasn’t enough to provide for his family.

dont they ever work for themselves its always the taxpayers who pay them , i thought he was a lobbyist after he was DA , i remember a sherrif getting fired after pulling him over coming back from the fair , cant they just go away
